Hylocereus Undatus Fruit Extract, derived from dragon fruit (pitaya), is used in skincare for its antioxidant, hydrating, and skin-conditioning properties due to its content of vitamin C, betalains, polyphenols, and fatty acids. It is generally regarded as a mild botanical ingredient with low irritation potential.
